Shulman Doubles Through Phillips

Dennis Phillips opened from the button for 350,000 only to have Allyn Jaffrey Shulman move all in for 1.39 million. Bob Phelps got out of the way, and after some contemplation, Phillips made the call.

Showdown
Phillips: {A-Hearts}{8-Hearts}
Shulman: {K-Clubs}{10-Clubs}

Phillips was ahead when the chips went in, and even managed to pair his aces on the {A-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{4-Clubs} flop; however, Shulman's supporters seemed quite excited as their woman had picked up the nut-flush draw. Wouldn't you know it, the {J-Clubs} peeled off on the turn to complete the said flush and guarantee Shulman the double.

Phillips gave her a quick hug as the {K-Spades} was put out on the river. With that, Phelps became the news chip leader simply by sitting on the sidelines.
